🔍 You approve the artwork before we make anything
🧶 Handmade · machine-embroidered base, hand needle-felted finish

Made to order — one photo, one pet, one of a kind.

We turn a photo of your pet into a hand-felted wool portrait: first machine-embroidered for a clean, stable outline, then finished by hand with needle-felted wool to build the fur, shading and expression. No two are ever the same.

How it works

Place your order and send one clear photo of your pet's face
We review it — if it won't translate well into wool, we'll ask for another before we start
You approve the artwork — nothing is made until you say yes
We make it by hand — embroidery first, then needle-felting
It ships — production takes 2–3 weeks after your approval

How to send your photo

You can upload your photo right here when you order. Or place the order first and send the photo afterwards — we'll email you straight away with the details. Either way works.

Options

Size: one size, adult. Ribbed wool knit with plenty of stretch.
Rush production (+$40): moves your order to the front of the production queue. Availability is limited — we only take a few rush orders at a time, because everything is made by hand.
Extra pets (+$50 each): a second or third pet can be added. Message us first with the photos — we'll confirm the composition and add it to your order.

What's included

Ribbed wool knit beanie in your chosen base colour
Hand-felted pet portrait, approximately 5–7 cm
An artwork preview sent for your approval before production
Gift-ready packaging and a wool care card

Please note

One pet per portrait as standard. See Extra pets above for more than one.
Because every piece is hand-felted, small variations in fur texture are natural, not a defect.
Hand-wash cool, dry flat. Never machine-wash or tumble-dry a felted portrait.

Questions before you order? Email hello@feltedandloved.com — we'd rather answer a question up front than fix a problem later.

Before you order — the photo that works best

Their face fills the frame — not a full-body shot in a faraway field
Natural daylight — near a window, flash off
Eyes clearly visible, ears fully in frame
A straight-on or slight three-quarter angle

Not ideal: blurry or heavily filtered photos, harsh shadows or backlighting, or screenshots from social media (they lose detail when compressed).

Not sure about your photo? Message me first — I'll tell you honestly whether it will translate well into wool.

What we can make

Dogs and cats are our specialty — any breed, any mix. We can also felt rabbits, hamsters and small birds.

We don't make children's items, and we can't reproduce third-party trademarks, sports or team logos, film or game characters, celebrity likenesses, or another artist's work. If we can't take your commission, we'll tell you before you pay, and refund you in full.

One pet per portrait as standard. A second or third pet can be added (+$50 each) — message me first with the photos and we'll confirm the composition together.
